Too sleepy tonight

We’re supposed to go gold this week and we’ve been burning the midnight oil. Once we go gold, we can move to the day 0 version which is, as far as I’m concerned, the “release” version. There won’t be much difference between the two other than AI. But frankly, if I had my way, none of you would be able to play the game and it would all be just AI vs. AI. they prefer it that way… :)

You humans and your germs!

Why would computers have to worry about our germs? It's not like they can catch a cold from us:P

Computers can catch my germs, they're that powerful.

Are you Chuck Norris? I don't think so. Only he is powerful enough to transmit diseases to a computer.

And oh boy does he have a great many to share.

Yes! I mean no! I mean yes! I mean... what?! IF he had any diseases, they would obviously be world-ending, held back only by pure willpower. Every cycle every CPU makes is under his mercy.

Yeah, but we're much less computationally demanding.  :grin:

My newest and greatest fear now is that Frogboy won't stop until the AI is self-aware and begins to try and take control of everything we hold dear.

AI vs AI really would be a better game. Think of all the time saved if you eliminated PEBCK errors!   :borg:

yes by playing a game of tic tac toe

It starts with a game of tic tac toe, but it ends with world domination...

 

Every day towards release just makes the wait all the more entertaining!  Waiting on my copy of Destiny's Embers has a similar result...

I still think Frogboy should code the AI to report back its results via the Reactor to Stardock. Skynet learning from all of us would be one bad mofo. Could even make it a checkbox option for those who would rather not contribute to the next step in evolution the evolution of gaming.

Oh, and I got sick once...just to see what it felt like. Stay thirsty my friends  :beer:

Are you going to be able to put in some of the spells from that spell request thread from back in July, or did you not have the time?  Would you be able to show us a preview of the final release spellbook or at least give us an idea on how many researchable (or findable via quest) spells the final game will have?

GO AI

Bring it on! Bring on that learning AI that can understand and copy the tactics from the top Elemental players and constantly evolve and learn.

Would be great to have an AI that presents a stiff challenge and has the ability to adapt and understand what does and doesn't work over the course of a game!

Do it! Make this AI lover happy! :D

I thought it ended with Global Thermonuclear War? At least that's how it went in the movie...

The bombs are to wipe out the resistance THEN comes the domination. I want an AI that calls its EX AI lover on the phone and bothers it making it lose to me in a match ;)

Frogboy, he sure knows how to treat us loyal human customers :P

Nobody wins in AI vs. AI fights. Hasn't GalCiv2 taught you anything? Which, btw, after hearing about that games AI I did think it was something like the beginning of Skynet AI because they "learned" and adapted to what was going on. Down right annoying when they put shields on their worthless ships because I used lasers. Pffff!

Seconded!!! Bring on that wimpy AI. I'm ready. I'll be happy if can even reach me if I close myself on an island by lowering the land around me. Found a way around that one yet, Frogster? Will it build boats and come after me or will it raise the land back up and make a land-bridge?
